A big reason for the losing streak is because he is in the worst funk of his career While still OPS'ing .989. You'd think the Angels should win SOME games even if Trout isn't hitting.

Leader Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Trevino has a walk off on his deceased Father's birthday. He does it again last night on his Son's birthday. Clearly we need to know more about his family tree and schedule ABs accordingly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That franchise is stacked with young hitting talent right now in all levels. The only thing I've noticed with some of these random Cards players is that they can burn out rather quickly (Almedys Diaz, DeJong, Allen Craig, Joe Kelly, Jaime Garcia, Carpenter, etc.) or maybe it just feels that way because they develop sooooo many good players.

No, it's how they've been for quite awhile now. Pull some obscure player from the draft, sprinkle some Cardinal Voodoo on them, and watch them become a solid contributor at the big league level for 2-4 years. They never have to extend any of them because they don't make it even through their arb years while being productive and are easily replaced with another voodoo guy. Their teams are never juggernauts, as they don't produce superstars, but they are always competetive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more conventional guys like Gorman, Jordan Walker, Ivan Herrera, and Mason Wynn really impress me. I also wonder all the time how Oscar Taveras' career would have went too, to make things more serious/sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
